When You Don’t Know What to Do, Take the Next Logical Step by Faith

What do you do when you don’t know what to do? Most of us would like God to give us a detailed map. We want to know where we are going, how we are going to get there, what problems we will encounter along the way, and how everything will eventually turn out. Then, once we have all the information, we will happily step out in faith....

How to Live in God’s Presence During Difficult Times

How can I experience God's presence during suffering? Where is God when life hurts? Is it possible to walk closely with God during a spiritual night season? The Bible answers each of those questions with a resounding "yes." Few desires are more deeply rooted in the human heart than the desire to know that God is near. More than answers to our questions, more than relief from our pain, we long for His presence....

Pray It Through: What to Do When Life Gets Worse After You Trust God

One of the most difficult parts of faith is what happens when we obey God and life gets harder anyway. That is exactly what happens in 1 Kings 17. The widow of Zarephath has already taken an enormous step of faith. She had almost no food left, yet she trusted Elijah’s word from God, prepared the meal, and watched day after day as the flour and oil refused to run out....

Something Is Changing in the American Church

Something is changing in the American church. That was the opening line of the first chapter of Change Your Church or Die when I wrote it years ago. At the time, I pointed to declining Southern Baptist membership and baptisms, aging congregations, and churches struggling to reach a new generation. I wrote, “The ship is taking on water. If we don’t change we will die.”...

10 Marks of Great Bible Teaching

What makes someone a great Bible teacher? It isn't necessarily a seminary degree, a booming voice, a brilliant personality, or the ability to explain Greek verbs. Some people know an enormous amount about the Bible and aren't particularly good teachers. Others have never taken a formal Bible course, yet when they open God's Word, people lean forward and listen. Great teaching is a collection of skills, and skills can be developed....

The Friendship That Changed a Kingdom

What David and Jonathan Teach Us About Loyal Friendship We live in an age of thousands of "friends" and very few deep friendships. Social media has made it easier than ever to stay connected, yet many people quietly admit they have no one they can call in the middle of the night. We have become experts at networking but often struggle with genuine relationships built on trust, sacrifice, and loyalty....

Learning to Listen During Prayer

How do you listen to God during prayer? Does God still speak today? How can you recognize God's voice without falling into subjectivism or simply following your own feelings? Learning to listen to God is one of the most important—and often misunderstood—aspects of the Christian life. Most Christians have no difficulty understanding the speaking part of prayer. We thank God for His blessings....

One Scoop Away from Empty: Trusting God When There Isn’t Enough

There are seasons when we look at what we have and conclude that it is not enough. Not enough money. Not enough strength. Not enough time. Not enough help. Not enough energy to keep going. Sometimes the problem is not that we have nothing. The problem is that we have just enough to see how close we are to empty....

A Promise That Changed History

What God's Covenant with David Means for Us Today Every one of us builds our lives on promises. We promise faithfulness in marriage. Employers promise wages. Parents promise to care for their children. Nations are held together by constitutions, contracts, and covenants. Human civilization depends upon people keeping their word. Unfortunately, people often fail. Promises are broken. Commitments weaken. Circumstances change....

Sometimes the Most Spiritual Thing You Can Do Is Calm Down

Some problems require immediate action. Others require us to stop trying to fix everything and give God time to work. Knowing the difference is one of the great challenges of the Christian life. At the Red Sea, the Israelites were understandably terrified. Pharaoh’s army was closing in behind them. The sea blocked the way ahead. There was no escape route, and there was nothing they could do to defeat the Egyptian army....
